P!nk Celebrates Wrapping Epic Summer Carnival World Tour: ‘I Can’t Believe It’s Over’

P!nk is celebrating the end of her epic Summer Carnival tour. The over-the-top global outing that kicked off in June 2023 in Bolton, England and wrapped up on Monday (Nov. 18) in Orlando played to more than 3.6 million people and grossed nearly $470 million.

“And just like that… it’s over. 131 shows. 98 cities. 15 countries. 4 million people. A lifetime of memories,” the singer wrote on Instagram alongside a video compilation of special moments from the tour featuring footage from the concerts and behind-the-scenes bits with her kids, husband and crew.

“I may joke all of the time, but this s–t is no joke,” she says in voiceover in the compilation. “This has been the hardest, most physically, mentally and spiritually ambitious show I have ever put on. Two years of galloping at top speed around the globe and back again. This crew, all of these beautiful people that never sleep, work their butts off. They build this city, break it down, move it on, light it, make it sound good. They build me up as well. They really are my family.”

The proof is in the footage, in which the many parts of the P!nk machine dress, prep and comfort her in the midst of the tour that saw the singer playing stadiums around the world and putting on a technicolor spectacular featuring her signature high-flying, acrobatic wire work, neon flamingo scooters, mega-trampolines and plenty of heartfelt moments.

“And it is the most magical, beautiful, impossible unbelievable thing to be a part of,” she continues in the voiceover. “I can’t believe what we’ve done.” The athletic endeavor wasn’t without its aches and pains, with P!nk lamenting at one point, “I hurt, I feel like s–t! I’m so tired of being inside… so many moving parts.”

In the end, she wrote on Instagram, it was all well worth it. “This show tested me in every way; my body, mind, and soul. It’s the most physically, mentally and spiritually ambitious show I’ve ever put on. It’s been really, really hard, but every moment has been worth it for the memories we’ve created together,” she said.

“I know I say thank you a lot, but thank you will never be enough. Your energy, love, commitment and passion are why we do this every night. Why I leave it all out there, every time. You have created a safe space with me where we can all belong. A world where we can put down our armor and our walls and just be. Breathe. Scream. Cry. Laugh. Feel. Celebrate. Mourn. Rage.”

She again thanked her crew and fans, those who made it out, and those who couldn’t this time. “Thank you for creating this incredible world with me,” she signed off. “I can’t believe what we’ve done. I can’t believe it’s over.”
